A different approach to analyzing the surface roughness of prosthetic dental ac...

(1) Introduction: Apart from the polishing method, conventional or mechanized, the arithmetic mean roughness (Ra) is the most common metric to evaluate the surface roughness of denture base acrylic resins. An overview of the constraints related to this roughness parameter is highlighted in this study. This research introduces new parameters for accessing a functional analysis of surface roughness. (2) Materials...

CO-5 Impact of interprofessional simulation on teamwork performance amongst med...

Introduction: Effective collaboration and communication within interprofessional teams is critical for quality and safety in healthcare delivery. Teams that communicate effectively and provide mutual support have reduced potential for error, resulting in improved clinical performance. In 2019, the University of Algarve created an innovative interprofessional education program, designed to train all final-year m...

Peri-implant diseases diagnosis, prognosis and dental implant monitoring: a nar...

BACKGROUND: The diagnosis of peri-implantar and periodontal relies mainly on a set of clinical measures and the evaluation of radiographic images. However, these clinical settings alone are not sufficient to determine, much less predict, periimplant bone loss or future implant failure. Early diagnosis of periimplant diseases and its rate of progress may be possible through biomarkers assessment. Once identified...

The success rate of the adhesive partial fixed prosthesis after five years: a s...

Objective: Evaluation of the success and/or survival rates of resin-bonded fixed partial dentures (RBFPDs) reported in the scientific literature with a minimum average observation time of five years. Materials and Methods: Search conducted in Pubmed, Web of Science, and Cochrane databases in free-text format and MESH terms, until May 2021. The random-effects model was used for the estimated survival rate, perce...

The success and complications of complete-arch implant-supported fixed monolith...

In full-arch rehabilitation with implant-supported fixed prostheses, using monolithic zirconia seems to have several advantages regarding function and esthetics. However, the current scientific evidence is still limited. Thus, the aim of this investigation was to systematically review the literature on monolithic zirconia restorations for full-arch rehabilitation, particularly pursuing the survival rate and mec...

Computer guided bone harvesting from mandible. Case series

alveolar defects is strongly dependent on bone augmentation procedures.[1] Autogenous bone is the most predictable material to support new bone formation, allowing for a higher bone survival rate and implant success.[1,2] Computer-guided bone harvesting, performed according to the protocol described by De Stavola et al. (2015), effectively translated the surgical plan into the surgical field, assisting the surg...

Screw-retained surgical guide for implant placement

Introduction: For patients with extended edentulous areas, with existing implants, and in need of additional implant placement, the use of the osseointegrated implants for guide fixation seems to be a logical alternative. Current options for the fabrication of surgical guides in this type of cases, involve creating surgical guides that are supported by the teeth, by the teeth and mucosa or retained by fixation ...

Screw-retained surgical guide for implant placement

Sequential surgical guide for full arch immediate implant placement and provisi...

giving new perspectives for dental treatments. Implant planning software allows the combination of radiology, prosthetic and surgical fields under a common virtual scenario, creating the designated virtual patient. This allows an optimized treatment planning and, when possible, the use of least invasive surgical techniques, with the patient experiencing a better postsurgical course with a faster tissue healing....
